    Tbh Verdun, I think they just like the conditions as I never do anything to themimage

    Bought some whites and pinks last year and because they were expensive I buckled and planted them on a layer of grit, according to gardening lore...

    Didn't do that with the yellow or small orange though and they're right as rain?

    Wearside, England.

    Fishy,

    Up here in Lancashire we say,

    " Never cast a clout until the may is out "

    The may is hawthorn.

    See original postYou know Richard, I never did know whether it meant the may blossom or the month. So it IS may blossom then image

    Oh for goodness.... image  Was that on the thread where I was a rubbish gardener and everybody was bathed in sunshine and pretty flowers? I can't remember Tetley.

    I'm alright now. I found more things coming into flower and I'm not the only one who's weeks behind. I'm beginning to think I'm too lazy to be a gardener. Well..maybe more than beginning. image
